Default Action In Struts2

[Arpit Gadle]

Dear All,
Can we do this(I tried it at my end but no success)

By entering,
http://localhost:8080/teststruts/

the default action name InitializeAction(for some initialization) should get called and then from its execute method i will show the result (i.e login.jsp)

I dont want to use struts.xml and will use Annotation


Regards,
Arpit

I don't think there's any non-XML way to set the default action (but could be wrong). It'd be pretty inefficient at startup if there was, too; not a big deal, but still.

thanks

I have one query

I am using Annotation and declared it in web.xml where to find annoted action class this way
web.xml snippet

    
<init-param>
            <param-name>actionPackages</param-name>
            <param-value>com.mycompany.mypackage.action</param-value>
</init-param>

Everything is working fine if action classes are in mypackage.action

but if move existing or create a new action class

in com.mycompany.mypackage.action.otheraction

i am getting this
HTTP Status 404

Can you explain this to me?

Thanks in advance
